The Minister of Education, Innovation, Youth, Sports, Arts and Culture, Sanet Steenkamp, has inaugurated three schools in the Kunene Region.

The government spent over N$70 million on these as well as extra classrooms, ablution facilities, and other infrastructure at nine other schools in the region.

In a bid to ease the burden of overcrowding in classrooms, two new schools have been opened at Otjiwarongo . 

The new primary and secondary schools are to accommodate learners who were previously taught in overcrowded classrooms, tents, and those in a platoon system from different schools.
